    Christ, I wish Americans would get over their embarrassment that half their population has a vagina.

    Not loving guns and murder? Unamerican communist!

    Talking about a lady’s body parts or for that matter anything remotely related to sexuality? Jesus Christ won’t someone please save our children from this fate worse than death!?

      Right now…you might want to start loving guns.

      I don’t know if you haven’t noticed but there are literal nazis in the Whitehouse.

      This anti-gun shit needs to stop from progressives. The fascist already have them.

    Hypocrisy. Bought some lube on amazon, and they sent a print pamphlet ad for vibrators to my parents adress addressed to me but now they want to talk about embarrassing?

    I would be much more embarrassed having a potent punani than buying products. 🤷🏿‍♀️

    Lol but they are fine with reminding me constantly of the one time I bought syringes for “a friend” with addiction years ago.

    Edit: to be clear I don’t use Amazon anymore as of last year and this is another good reason why.

      Bought replacement float and toilet seat last week to fix my aunts toilet.

      Amazon now thinks I’m a toilet repair technician or some shit. I see nothing but different kinds of floats, stoppers, tank gaskets, seats, bidets, anything that can go in or on a toilet, Amazon thinks I need.

      I’ve never been ad bombarded this hard before, and it’s about toilet parts.

        I bought a bidet like six years ago (right before the pandemic) and Amazon is convinced I need to buy another one every single week. How many toilets do you think I have, Amazon?

    Looking up Vuva, they sell neodymium magnet embedded dildos. I can’t speak to the medical efficacy, I’m just saying what they look like.

    Somehow Amazon doesn’t like that but is OK with actual dildos?

      Oh my god, it’s so bad.

      “Soft tissue lengthens, relaxing muscles and ligaments. As the tissue relaxes, the Neodymium magnets increase blood flow to the area calming nerves and promote relaxation. VuVa™ are the only patented sets available with Neodymium magnets.”

      “Magnetic Therapy is based on the premise that all living organisms exist in a magnetic field, including the human body. The human body generates its own magnetic field. Therefore, the body can heal itself when electromagnetic energy is in balance.”

      It’s like those stupid magnet bracelets and elbow wraps, only for your vagina. It’s all woo.

        The product is a vaginal dilator, which has evidence supporting its use in treatment of several medical conditions. The distinction from a dildo has more to do with intended use than form.

        The magnets are just woo.

          Oh, no disagreements with dilators; they’re essential for e.g., women with vaginismus that want to have ‘normal’ sexual relationships.

        As the tissue relaxes, the Neodymium magnets increase blood flow

        Uhm, no, the iron in your blood isn’t in a ferromagnetic form.

      Magnets are snake oil. They have no effect on the human body. Don’t waste your money.

        I disagree. The human body is mostly water. Water is slightly diamagnetic. Therefore, a sufficiently strong magnet is capable of levitating a human body off the ground.

        Magnets can definitely have an effect, just not at puny neodymium magnet levels!

          I have a strong but as of yet untested theory that no human will ever levitate based on magnitized internal human water.

          A magnet sufficiently strong enough to levitate a human based on the water in the body is more likely to remove the water from the body instead.

            It works on frogs. The force is distributed over the whole body, so it’s no worse than gravity is on our bodies.

    Once I order tampons on Amazon. They just put a shipping label directly on a single box.

    I’m not embarrassed by stuff like that, but how weird.
